BC Care Card Name Change

It’s important to update the name on your BC Care Card as soon as practical, especially as you need updated provincial ID before changing names on your passport. BC Care requires your name change to be sent in writing, along with a copy of your marriage certificate, divorce decree or legal change order. If reverting to your prior name, you can include a copy of your marriage and birth certificates.
